4. Connect the photo eye (labeled Tower Light) to its respective quick connect.

Installing the Photo Eye

• This topic describes how to install the photo eye onto the panel.
• The photo eye mounts to the A-panel closest to the dock door.
• This ensures that the photo eye will be within 10 ft. of the reflective tape on the dock door—the maximum recommended distance.

2. Adhere the reflective tape to the inside of the dock door at the same level as the photo eye lens.
3. Connect the photo eye cable to the quick connect on the rear of the A-panel closest to the dock door.
4. The red light in the back of the photo-eye will blink when it is in line with the reflective tape—the faster the light blinks, the better the signal.
5. Adjust the position of the photo eye as necessary.

Installing the Stack Light

This topic describes how to install the stack light onto the panel.

1. Using the #14 screw, secure the stack light bracket to the portal extrusion hole second from the panel edge facing the opposite panel.
2. Connect the stack light cable to the quick connect on the rear of the A-panel farthest from the dock door.
